Description or other Plan documentation, and only until the Retirees attainment of age 65.

3.2 Disability. A
Participants Disability shall not be treated as a Termination of Employment during the Disability period and the Participant shall continue to be entitled to all applicable Benefits under the terms of this Plan. If Disability continues through
the normal Retirement date for the individual, the Participants Termination of Employment shall be the normal Retirement date, and such person shall be considered a Retiree after such date.

participation in the Plan other than as described herein or in the Summary Plan Description, such coverage shall be extended only to such individuals as therein described. No other provision of the Plan shall be altered in any way by such

ARTICLE IV

BENEFITS

4.1 Benefits Provided. The only Benefits provided under this Plan are those
described in the Insurance Contracts and the Summary Plan Description, and, where applicable subject to Section 4.2, Exhibit A.

4.2
Grandfathered Benefits. The Benefits applicable to Retirees participating in the Plan prior to the Effective Date hereof, and who continue such participation after the Effective Date, shall be governed by the provisions of Exhibit A and the
Insurance Contracts applicable thereto. This Section, as with all provisions herein and those contained in any Exhibit hereto, shall be subject to the amendment and termination provisions of the Plan.

4.3 Designation of Beneficiary. The Participant shall have the right, at any time, to designate any person or persons as Beneficiary (both primary
and contingent) to whom payment under this Plan shall be made in the event of the Participants death. The Beneficiary designation shall be made according to the procedures established by the Plan Administrator. If a Participant fails to
designate a Beneficiary, or if every person designated as a Beneficiary predeceases the Participant or dies prior to complete distribution of the Participants Benefits, then the Company or Insurer, as applicable, may direct the distribution of
Benefits to the Participants estate.

4.4 Right to Receive and Release Necessary Information. The Plan, an Insurer, an
Employer and/or their designees have the right to obtain, receive and release all information in order to administer the Benefits. As a precondition to receiving Benefits, an individual claiming Benefits hereunder (or their Beneficiary, if
applicable) is required to furnish to the Plan, the Insurer and/or their designees all information such may deem necessary, in their discretion, for the proper administration of the Plan, which includes but is not limited to, all information
regarding the medical condition of the Participant for which Benefits are to be, are being or have been paid.

4.5 Right of
Recovery. If Benefit payments have been made by the Plan (including, but not limited to, payments made by an Insurer) in excess of the maximum amount payable under the terms of the Plan, the Plans designated representative (including, but
not limited to, the applicable Insurer) has the right to recover the excess amount paid on behalf of the Plan or themselves, as applicable. The Plan shall have the right to recover the excess Benefit payment(s) from any entity in possession thereof.
If any entities shall fail or refuse to return any overpayments to the Plan, the Plan and/or Insurer shall have a right to initiate legal action in whatever form against such entities, terminate all eligibility to future Benefit payments otherwise
payable to such entities from the Plan from either the same or subsequent claim(s), and/or offset all future Benefit payments otherwise payable to such entities from the Plan from either the same or subsequent claim(s) until the amount of
overpayment is recovered.

4.6 Coverage Options. If available, Participants will make elections with respect to coverage options
under the Plan as provided in the Insurance Contracts, the Summary Plan Description or herein.

4.7 Conversion Policy. If a
conversion policy is made available from an Insurer to a Participant, upon election of coverage under such policy, the Insurer will be the sole provider of the benefits provided by such policy. Benefits provided under a conversion policy shall not
be Benefits, as defined herein, and shall not be an obligation of the Plan, the Company or any Employer.

ARTICLE V

FUNDING

5.1 Plan Funding. The Plan Administrator in its sole discretion may adopt a
funding mechanism necessary to carry out the purposes of the Plan, which may be through Insurance Contracts, Participant contributions, the general assets of the Company, or any combination thereof. All Participant contributions required by
applicable law to be held in a trust shall be so deposited and administered according to the provisions of any such trust. The determinations of the Plan Administrator with respect to amounts and times of payment shall be binding upon the Company
and each participating Subsidiary and Affiliate. The Company shall make additional contributions in such amounts and at such times as shall be required for payment of the premiums for the Insurance Contracts charged by the Insurers. On no account
shall any Participant have any right or incidence of ownership in any Insurance Contract owned by the Company to fund Benefits hereunder.

(a) Subject to the agreement of the Plan Administrator, which may be revoked at any time, and pursuant to procedures established by the Plan Administrator, a Participant whose Benefits have not been grandfathered
pursuant to the provisions hereunder shall have an option to have the Benefits to which their Beneficiary would become entitled paid from the general assets of the Company rather than from an Insurance Contract. If a Participant wishes to make such
an election, the Participant will be advised by the Company in the Summary Plan Description that current law indicates such Benefits could be considered taxable income both to the Participant and the Participants estate, and that the
Participant should seek tax and legal advice from their personal advisers.

(b) If an Insurer declines to provide coverage
for a Participant or if the Benefits to be provided to a Participant are in excess of the coverage provided by an Insurance Contract insuring the life of the Participant, the Company shall provide such Benefits or any portion thereof from its
general assets. Participants shall be advised of this provision in the Summary Plan Description, and will be also advised therein by the Company that current law indicates such Benefits funded by the general assets of the Company could be considered
taxable income both to the Participant and the Participants estate, and that the Participant should seek tax and legal advice from their personal advisers.

the Plan, including, but not limited to, the compensation of any legal counsel, advisors, or other technical or clerical assistance as may be required; and any other expenses incidental to the operation of the Plan that the Plan

8

Administrator determines are proper. Expenses of the Plan may be prorated, as determined by the Plan Administrator, among the participating Affiliates and
Subsidiaries of the Company and/or among one or more trusts used to fund the Plan.

6.5 Right to Delegate. The Plan Administrator
shall have the authority to delegate to any other person or organization, any of its powers, duties, and responsibilities with respect to the operation and administration of the Plan, including, but not limited to, the administration of claims, the
authority to authorize payment of Benefits, the review of denied or modified claims, and the discretion to decide matters of fact and to interpret Plan provisions. The Plan Administrator also may from time to time employ, and authorize any person to
whom any of its fiduciary responsibilities have been delegated to employ, person(s) to render advice with regard to any fiduciary responsibility held hereunder. Upon designation and acceptance of such delegation, employment or authorization, the
Plan Administrator shall have no liability for the acts or omissions of any such designee if the Plan Administrator does not violate its fiduciary responsibility in making or continuing such designation. All delegations of fiduciary responsibility
shall be reviewed at least annually by the Plan Administrator and shall be terminable upon such notice as the Plan Administrator in its discretion deems reasonable and prudent under the circumstances.

fiduciary or otherwise, the provisions of the Plan shall be entitled to rely upon information furnished by a Participant, including, but not limited to, such persons current mailing address.

6.7 Insurers. Where the Benefits herein are to be provided by an Insurer, the Plan Administrator allocates to each such Insurer the responsibility

Description issued by such Insurer pertaining to the eligibility for and the amount of Benefits funded by such Insurer.

against any and all expenses and liabilities arising out of such persons Plan administrative functions or fiduciary responsibilities, as applicable, including, but not limited to, any expenses and liabilities that are caused by or result from
an act or omission constituting the negligence of such individual in the performance of such functions or responsibilities, but excluding expenses and liabilities arising out of such individuals own gross negligence or willful misconduct. Such
expenses to be indemnified hereunder include, but are not limited to, the amounts of any settlement, judgment, costs, counsel fees, and related charges reasonably incurred in connection with a claim asserted or a proceeding brought. Notwithstanding
the foregoing provisions of this Section, this Section shall not apply to, and the Company shall not indemnify against, any expense that was incurred without the general consent or approval of the Company, which consent or approval may be

of defraying reasonable expenses of administering the Plan;

(b) With the care, skill, prudence, and diligence under the
circumstances then prevailing that a prudent person acting in a like capacity and familiar with such matters would use in the conduct of an enterprise of a like character and with like aims; and

(c) In accordance with the documents and instruments governing the Plan insofar as such documents and instruments are consistent with

6.11 Adoption of Plan by Subsidiaries and Affiliates. It is contemplated that Subsidiaries and Affiliates of the Company may participate in the
Plan. By its participation in the Plan, each Subsidiary and Affiliate acknowledges the appointment and power of the Plan Administrator and agrees to the Plans terms, including, but not limited to, a Subsidiarys or Affiliates
funding obligations to the Plan. Any such Subsidiary and Affiliate also authorizes and designates the Company and the Plan Administrator as their agents to act in all transactions affecting the continued operation of the Plan. The Company in its
discretion may terminate a participating employers Plan participation at any time by giving reasonable notice of such termination to the employer.

6.12 Amendment and Termination. Notwithstanding any other communication, either oral or written, made by any other individual or entity, the Company, acting through the Compensation and Human Resources

ARTICLE VII

GENERAL PROVISIONS

7.1 No Guarantee of Employment. The adoption and maintenance of
the provisions of this Plan shall not be deemed to constitute a contract of employment between the Company and any Employee, or to be a consideration for, or an inducement or condition of, the employment of any person. Nothing herein contained shall
be deemed to give to any Employee the right to be retained in the employ of the Company or to interfere with the right of the Company to discharge an Employee at any time, nor shall it be deemed to give to the Company the right to require any
Employee to remain in its employ, nor shall it interfere with any Employees right to terminate his employment at any time.

7.2
Controlling Law. This Plan shall be construed, administered and governed in all respects under applicable federal law, and to the extent that the Plan Administrator determines federal law has been finally judged inapplicable in any particular
circumstance, under the laws of the State of Texas as to such a circumstance. If any provision of this Plan shall be held by a court or government agency of competent jurisdiction to be invalid or unenforceable, the remaining provisions hereof shall
continue to be fully effective.

7.3 Invalidity of Particular Provisions. In the event any provision of this Plan adopted hereunder
shall be held illegal or invalid for any reason, said illegality or invalidity shall not affect the remaining provisions of this Plan adopted hereunder but shall be fully severable, and this Plan shall be construed and enforced as if said illegal or
invalid provisions had never been inserted therein.

7.4 No Vested Right to Benefits. No person claiming Benefits through a
Participant shall have any right to or interest in any Benefits provided under the Plan, except as specifically provided under the Plan.

7.5 Non-Alienation of Benefits. No Benefit payment under this Plan shall be subject in any way to alienation, sale, transfer, pledge, attachment, garnishment, execution or encumbrance of any kind, and any attempt to accomplish the
same shall be void. If the Plan Administrator or an Insurer shall find that such an attempt has been made with respect to any payment due or to become due to any Participant, the Plan Administrator in its sole discretion may terminate or otherwise
modify the interest of such Participant in such payment, and in such case shall apply the amount of such payment to or for the Benefit of such Participant as the Plan Administrator or Insurer may determine, and any such application shall be a
complete discharge of all liability with respect to such Benefit.

7.6 Payments in Satisfaction of Claims. Any payment or
distribution to any Participant or Beneficiary in accordance with the provisions of the Plan shall be in full satisfaction of all claims made by such individual under the Plan. Furthermore, such payments will operate as a complete discharge of any
liabilities of the Plan, the Plan Administrator, the Company and any Insurers. For any Benefits to be paid from the general assets of the Company, the Participant and any Beneficiary receiving Benefits shall be no more than unsecured general
creditors of the Company with no special or prior right to any assets of the Company for payment of any obligations hereunder. Although the Company intends to purchase Insurance

12

Contracts to fund, in whole or in part, the Benefits provided hereunder, the Participants shall have no legal or equitable rights, interests or other claims
with respect to such Insurance Contracts.

7.7 Payments Due Minors and Incompetents. If the Plan Administrator or Insurer, as
applicable, determines that any person to whom a payment is due hereunder is a minor or is incompetent by reason of physical or mental disability, the Plan Administrator or Insurer, as applicable, shall have power to cause the payments becoming due
to such person to be made to another for the benefit of such minor or incompetent, without the Plan Administrator or Insurer being responsible to see to the application of such payment. Furthermore, such payments will operate as a complete discharge
of any liabilities of the Plan, the Plan Administrator, the Company and any Insurers.

7.8 No Guarantee of Tax Consequences. Neither
the Company, the Plan Administrator, an Insurer or other person, as applicable, makes any commitment or guarantee that any benefits provided or amounts paid to or for the benefit of a Participant hereunder will be excludable from the
Participants gross income for federal or state income and employment tax purposes, or that any other federal or state tax treatment will apply to or be available to any Participant. It shall be the obligation of each Participant to determine
whether each payment hereunder is excludable from the Participants gross income for federal and state income and employment tax purposes. In addition, should any federal, state or local income tax withholding requirements and Social Security
or other employee tax requirements be applicable to the Benefits provided under the Plan, the Participant and any Beneficiary shall make appropriate arrangements with the Company to satisfy any such requirements. If no such arrangements are made,
the Company may provide, at its discretion, for withholding and tax payments as required.

7.9 Acceptance of Terms of Plan. Each
Participant shall not be allowed to participate in the Plan unless the Participant, in his Participation Agreement, shall agree to a statement that he and his dependents, heirs, legal representatives and assigns, agree to be bound by the provisions
of this Plan, and any other provision the Plan Administrator shall deem to be appropriate, to the extent permitted by applicable law. Such agreement may be evidenced in writing or appropriate electronic format by which the Participant is bound by
operation of law.

7.10 Impossibility of Diversion of a Trust Fund. Notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary, if the
Plan Administrator determines that the Plan shall be funded through a voluntary employees beneficiaries association trust organized under Code Section 501(c)(9), no part of the corpus or the income of such trust fund shall ever be used
for or diverted to purposes other than for the exclusive benefit of the Participants or their Beneficiaries or for the payment of expenses of the Plan. No part of the trust fund shall ever directly or indirectly revert to the Company. No part of the
net earnings of the trust fund shall inure to the Benefit of any private shareholder or individual under circumstances which would violate the requirements of Code Section 501(c)(9). No part of the trust fund is to be used to provide retirement
income to Employees or to defer income for periods extending to or beyond the termination of covered employment, in circumstances such that the Plan would be an employee pension benefit plan under ERISA.

13

7.11 Evidences of Action by the Company. Any action required by any provision of this Plan to be
taken by the Company shall be evidenced by a written document issued by an appropriate corporate officer. All interested parties may rely upon, and shall be fully protected in acting in accordance with, such written documents and/or resolutions.

7.12 Insurance. The Plan Administrator may apply for and obtain fiduciary liability insurance insuring the Plan against damages by
reason of breach of fiduciary responsibility at the Plans expense and insuring each fiduciary of the Plan against liability to the extent permissible by law at the Companys expense.

7.13 Clerical Error. Any clerical error by the Company, the Plan Administrator, an Insurer or other person, as applicable, in keeping pertinent
records, or a delay in making any changes, will not invalidate coverage otherwise validly in force or continue coverage validly terminated. An equitable adjustment of contributions will be made when the error or delay is discovered. If, due to a
clerical error, an overpayment occurs in a Plan payment, the Plan retains a contractual right to the overpayment from the party paid or the Participant upon whose behalf the payment was made.

7.14 Limitation of Rights. Neither the establishment of the Plan nor any amendment thereof, nor the payment of any Benefits will be construed as
giving to any person any legal or equitable right against the Company, the Plan, the Plan Administrator, an Insurer or other person, as applicable, or their respective officers and directors, as an Employee or otherwise, except as expressly provided
herein.

7.15 Examination of Documents. In the event a Participant or Beneficiary requests copies of Plan documents to which he/she
is entitled under ERISA, the Plan Administrator may charge a reasonable amount to cover the cost of furnishing such documents in accordance with ERISA.

7.16 Information To Be Furnished. Participants shall provide the Company, the Plan Administrator, an Insurer or other person, as applicable, with whatever information as may reasonably be requested from time to
time for the purpose of administering the Plan.

7.17 Statements. All coverage provided under the Plan is based on the truthfulness
of statements made by Participants, either in a written enrollment form or otherwise. Coverage can be voided, and any claims erroneously paid can be recovered by the Plan, if such coverage was provided or claim paid based on any misrepresentation or
fraudulent misstatement made to the Company, the Plan Administrator, an Insurer or other person, as applicable, by or on behalf of such Participant.

7.18 Waiver or Estoppel. No term, condition or provision of the Plan shall be waived, and there shall be no estoppel against the enforcement of any provision of the Plan, except by written direction of the Plan
Administrator. No such waiver shall be deemed a continuing waiver unless specifically stated. Each waiver shall operate only as to the specific term or condition waived and shall not constitute a waiver of such term or condition for the future or as
to any act other than that specifically waived. No failure to enforce any provision of this Plan shall affect the right thereafter to enforce such provision, nor shall such failure affect its right to enforce any other provision of this Plan.

14

7.19 Legal Proceedings. No action at law or in equity shall be brought to recover Benefits from
the Plan prior to a Participants expiration of the claims and review procedures set out in the Summary Plan Description and/or Insurance Contracts. At such a point and not before, Participants will be considered to have exhausted all
administrative remedies. Furthermore, no such legal action shall be valid if brought more than three (3) years from the expiration of the time within which proof of loss is required by the Plan, or such longer period if allowed by applicable
law.

7.20 Time Limitation. If any time limitation of the Plan with respect to giving notice of claim or furnishing proof of loss,
or the bringing of an action at law or in equity, is less than that permitted by applicable law, such limitation is hereby extended to agree with the minimum period permitted by such law.

7.21 Unknown Whereabouts. It shall be the affirmative duty of each Participant to inform and update the Company, the Plan Administrator and the
Insurer, as applicable, regarding the Participants and his/her Beneficiaries current mailing address. If a Participant fails to perform this function, neither the Company, the Plan, the Plan Administrator, an Insurer or other person, as
applicable, shall be responsible for any late payment or loss of Benefits or for failure of any notice to be provided or provided timely under the terms of the Plan to such individual.

7.22 Other Salary-Related Plans. It is intended that any salary-related employee benefit plans that are maintained or sponsored by the Company or
a participating Employer shall not be affected by this Plan. Any contributions or benefits under such other plans with respect to a Participant shall, to the extent permitted by law and applicable plan documents, be based on the Participants
salary or compensation without regard to any Benefits paid or available under this Plan.

7.23 Abuse of Coverage. In the event that
the Plan Administrator makes a good faith determination, in its sole discretion, that evidence exists that a Participant is attempting to abuse Plan coverage or Benefits by attempting or aiding the filing of claims to which a person is not entitled,
the Plan Administrator may limit or terminate the coverage or Benefits provided to said Participant to the extent necessary, in the Plan Administrators sole discretion, to prevent such abuse, and shall be entitled to turn over all information
to appropriate governmental authorities to investigate whether fraud has taken place under federal and/or state law. Any such termination or limitation of coverage or Benefits shall be effective at 11:59 p.m. on the date that the Plan Administrator
mails or otherwise provides written notice of same to the Participant. Coverage or Benefits limited or terminated pursuant to this Section may be reinstated upon the Plan Administrators determination, in its sole discretion, that the
Participant has presented satisfactory evidence that abuse of Plan coverage or Benefits did not occur or that further attempts at such abuse are unlikely to occur. Notwithstanding the above, neither this paragraph nor any provision of this Plan
shall be used in any way to discriminate against a Participant in the valid exercise of his/her rights hereunder, including, but not limited to, the election of coverage and the claiming of Benefits to which the Participant is entitled under the
terms of the Plan.

7.24 Preemption of State Law. This Plan and all of its provisions shall be preempted from any and all state
laws, to the maximum extent provided by ERISA and any other federal law. If any provision of an Insurance Contract or Summary Plan Description purports to allow a state statute or regulation to mandate or otherwise regulate the administration or
provision of Benefits provided by this Plan, such provision shall be invalid unless the Plan Administrator, in its sole discretion, determines otherwise. The mere acceptance of (a) an Insurance Contract to fund, in whole or in part, the
Benefits provided by this Plan, and/or (b) the Plans Summary Plan Description shall not be considered an affirmative act of the Plan Administrator to so determine.

may be accelerated. If a Change of Control occurs and the Beneficiary designated by the Participant is at that time receiving installment payments under this Program, the Beneficiary may elect to receive a single lump sum payment. The payment shall

assets of the Company for payment of any obligations hereunder. Although the Company intends to purchase insurance policies (that is, the Policies) on the life of the Participants, the Participants shall have no legal or equitable rights, interests,
or other claims with respect to the Policy as the result of Participants election to receive benefits under the Survivor Income Program.

ARTICLE V

Beneficiary Designation

Section 5.1 Participant Designation. The Participant shall have the right, at any time, to designate any person or persons as Beneficiary (both primary and contingent) to whom payment under this Plan shall
be made in the event of the Participants death. The Beneficiary designation shall be delivered in writing to the Administrator during the Participants lifetime on

ARTICLE VI

EXHIBIT B

SUMMARY PLAN DESCRIPTION

24

EXECUTIVE LIFE INSURANCE PLAN

The Lyondell Chemical Company Executive Life Insurance Plan (the Plan) provides security for your survivors in the event of your death.

The following is a summary of the main provisions of the Plan. As with any plan summary, the controlling provisions of the Plan are contained in the Plan Document. In
the case of any discrepancies, the Plan Document will govern. The Plan Document is an amendment and restatement effective as of September 1, 2006 of the Lyondell Chemical Company Executive Life Insurance Plan (the Prior Plan).

The company reserves the right to change or terminate this Plan at any time.

Whats It All About?

During your employment, you are provided life insurance protection equal to two or three times your base salary.

Coverage will continue at two or three times your final base salary if you Retire before age 65.

If you become a Retiree prior to age 65, you are provided life insurance protection until you reach age 65, with no coverage being provided after that date.

In the past, the Plan was funded by whole life policies. Due to recent legal changes, these policies are no longer used to provide the benefit and coverage now may be funded by
either a group term life insurance policy owned by the Company, through the Companys general assets or some combination thereof. Also, due to those same legal changes, your life insurance benefits will be paid as a lump sum upon your
death.

Who Is Eligible?

You are eligible to participate in the Plan if you (i) currently have an executive employment relationship with the Company, (ii) do not have an executive employment relationship with the
Company but were a Participant in the Prior Plan on August 31, 2006, and remain employed with the Company or (iii) are a Retiree under the age of 65.

How Do I Sign Up?

In order to participate in this Plan, you must:

1. Make an election to have your benefits funded by either a group term life insurance policy or by
Lyondells general assets. (See below for important considerations regarding this election.)

2. If you elect to have your benefits funded by a group term life insurance policy, cooperate with
insurance underwriting requirements, which may include but not be limited to a medical exam, if requested.

3. Sign an application and complete a confidential questionnaire, if applicable.

4. Complete online enrollment forms, if applicable.

5. Submit all forms to Executive Services.

If you elect coverage in the group term life insurance plan, you are automatically enrolled. Otherwise, coverage will be effective upon approval by the insurance company, or upon your election
to have your benefits funded by the general assets of the Company.

You may choose to decline the Company-paid coverage. However, if you want to become covered at a later date, you will be required to provide evidence of insurability should you elect to have
your benefits funded by a group term life insurance policy, and you will be subject to acceptance by the insurance company.

Fully insured or self-funded?

You may choose to have your life insurance benefits funded in one of two ways when you first enroll in this Plan. Option 1 is through a Company-owned group term life insurance policy, while
Option 2 is via the Companys general assets (or self-insured).

If you choose Option 1, you will have imputed income on the value of the policy while covered, however, your benefits would be paid tax-free to your beneficiaries.

If you choose Option 2, you will have no imputed income while covered, however, your benefits would be subject to both income and estate tax upon your death.

The amount of imputed income which would be applicable to you under Option 1 is established by IRS regulation, and might be comparatively de minimus to the taxation of self-insured benefits in
Option 2. In any case, you are strongly advised to review the matter with your own tax and legal advisers before making any option.

It is also possible that even if you elect Option 1, the Company may obtain group term life insurance coverage for only a portion of your total benefit. If this occurs, you will receive imputed
income on the amount of benefit funded by the Companys group term life insurance policy, while the remaining portion of your benefit, if paid, will be taxable to you and your estate.

For a schedule of the imputed income amounts or any other questions regarding the nature of your benefits, please contact the Companys Executive Services office in
Houston.

As with all provisions of the Plan, the Company reserves the right to amend or terminate these options, even retroactively. Your election of either option must be approved by the Company for the
election to be effective.

What Is My Coverage

While Im Employed?

Your life insurance coverage while you are employed will be equal to two or three times your base annual salary, which shall not include bonuses, benefits or any other additional monies paid to
you.

What Is My Coverage

While on Leaves of Absence?

Your life insurance coverage continues for the length of the

leave if the leave of absence is for one of the following reasons:

Company Approved Medical Leave of Absence

Workers Compensation Leave

Family Medical Leave

Approved Paid Leave of Absence

Maternity Leave

Your life insurance coverage will end after 30 days if the leave of absence is for one of the following reasons:

Military Leave

Personal Leave

Education Leave

Approved Unpaid Leave of Absence

Who Receives the

About Your Beneficiary

Survivor Benefit?

You may designate one or more beneficiaries to receive your Plan benefit when
you die.

Your beneficiary is the person(s) you designate to receive a benefit in the event of your death. To name a beneficiary, log on to www.Lyondell.com/hwbenefits. You may designate anyone you wish
as your beneficiary, and you may change this designation at any time. If you die and

you have named more than one beneficiary, each receives an equal benefit unless you have left written instruction otherwise.

If you are married at the time of your death, your surviving spouse may be entitled under applicable state law (i.e., community property laws) to a portion of the benefit, whether or not your
spouse is your designated beneficiary. In that event, the benefits payable to any other designated beneficiary/beneficiaries may be reduced.

How Is the Survivor

Benefit Paid?

Plan benefits, to the extent they have not been decreased by the Living Benefit Option, will be paid to your beneficiary in a lump sum in the event of your death while covered.

If your benefit is funded totally by a group term life insurance policy, your beneficiary will receive the benefit income tax free. However, you will have imputed income tax liability on the
value of your benefit each year while you are employed. This liability is based on an age-related rate per thousand dollars of coverage if a lump sum is chosen.

If any portion of your benefit is funded by the Companys general assets, you will have no present income tax liability, but the benefit will be taxable to your beneficiary when received on
both an income and estate tax basis.

What Happens When I

Retire?

If you Retire before age 65, your Company-paid coverage will continue at two or three times your final base salary until you reach age 65.

Under the terms of the Plan, to Retire means you have terminated employment and have a right to receive a retirement allowance under the Lyondell Chemical Company Retirement Plan or
an affiliates or subsidiarys sponsored tax-qualified retirement plan under which you are covered, whether or not you have commenced receiving such allowance.

What Happens If I

Leave the Company

Before Retirement?

If your employment with the Company terminates before Retirement, you will no longer be eligible for coverage under this Plan. If any portion of your benefits is funded by the Companys
group term life insurance policy, a conversion option may be available to you upon termination of employment for that portion. A conversion option will not be provided for any portion of your benefits which are funded by the Companys general
assets.

What Happens When

My Salary Increases?

When your base annual salary increases, your life insurance coverage amount will also automatically increase, effective as of the date of the salary increase.

What Happens If I

Become Disabled?

In the event of disability, your Company-paid life insurance benefit will remain in force until you reach age 65, at which point the coverage will terminate. In order to be disabled, you must
be determined totally disabled by the Lyondell Chemical Company Executive Long Term Disability Plan.

What Happens If I

Become Terminally Ill?

The Living Benefit Option gives you access to the death benefit funds if you are considered terminally ill. You may receive this benefit if a physician certifies that you suffer from an
incurable, progressive and medically recognized disease or condition, and you will not survive more than 12 months beyond the date of the request for an accelerated death benefit.

The maximum amount you can receive is 50% of the basic life coverage amount. The money will be paid to you in a lump sum payment and may be considered taxable income. Payment of this benefit
reduces the amount of benefits payable upon your death by the amount that you receive.

A living benefit will not be paid if you have assigned your benefit.

What Else Do I Need to Know?

This Plan is administered by the Benefits Administrative Committee established by the Company, which has the right to interpret the Plan and all other matters that might arise under the terms
of the Plan.

To file a claim for benefits provided by the group term life insurance policy, your beneficiary should contact Lyondell Executive Services. A claim form and proof of death must be provided. Your
beneficiary has one year to file the claim for benefits. The Claims Administrator will then review the claim within 90 days. If additional information is required, you or your beneficiary will receive a request specifying the nature of the
information needed. Once the claim is approved, your beneficiary will receive a lump sum payment for the appropriate benefits.

For any benefits which are to be paid by the Companys general assets, the Company will follow the same procedures as outlined therein, with the exception being that the Company will have
the sole discretion to determine whether a claim is payable.

The Company reserves the right to amend or terminate the Plan. A copy of the Plan document is available upon request from Executive Services.

A. RECEIVING INFORMATION ABOUT THE PLAN AND ITS BENEFITS

As a
Participant in the Plan, an employee is entitled to certain rights and protections under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974. ERISA provides that all Participants shall be entitled to:



Examine, without charge, at the Plan Administrators office and at other specified locations, such as worksites and union halls, all documents governing the Plan, including
insurance contracts and collective bargaining agreements.



Obtain, upon written request to the Plan Administrator, copies of documents governing the operation of the Plan, including insurance contracts and collective bargaining agreements,
and a copy of an updated Summary Plan Description. The Plan Administrator may make a reasonable charge for the copies.



Receive a summary of material reduction in covered services or benefits provided under the Plan within 60 days after the adoption of the changes (unless summaries of changes
to the Plan are provided at regular intervals of 90 days).

B. PRUDENT ACTIONS BY PLAN FIDUCIARIES

In addition to creating rights for Participants, ERISA imposes obligations upon the individuals who are responsible for the operation of the Plan. The individuals who operate this Plan, called fiduciaries
of the Plan, have a duty to do so prudently and in the interest of Participants and their beneficiaries. No one, including the Company, a union or any other person, may fire an employee or otherwise discriminate against a Participant in any way to
prevent him from obtaining a welfare benefit or exercising his rights under ERISA.

C. ENFORCING RIGHTS AS A PARTICIPANT

If a claim for a welfare benefit is denied or ignored, in whole or in part, the Participant has a right to know why this was done, to obtain copies of documents relating
to the decision without charge, and to appeal any denial, all within certain time schedules.

Under ERISA, there are steps a Participant can take to
enforce the above rights. For instance, if the Participant requests a copy of Plan Documents or the latest annual report from the Plan and does not receive the materials within 30 days, he may file suit in a Federal court. In such a case, the
court may require the Plan Administrator to provide the materials and pay the Participant up to $110 a day until he receives the materials, unless the materials were not sent because of reasons beyond the control of the Plan Administrator. If
